* Is going to play trombone in the band this year
* Rolls his eyes constantly
* Is starting to plan his 12th birthday party (we're thinking a camp out)
* Is so grown up, but is still such a little kid (good!)
* Moved into the Jr. High/High School class at church on Sunday's, he seems to like it so far
* Is obsessed with Axe body spray

Don't you just love the "right of Passage"...being able to walk to the K after school? Evan thinks it is pretty cool.

What a great update! Some of the items on his list were pretty funny. ;)

The Axe spray made me laugh. Those commercials are something else. Dave loves that stuff too.
Walking on his own for ice cream, such a grown up thing.
